How dare that flu bug touch me!
Doesn't it know I'm as busy as a bee?
I don't have time to be sick,
I must be up quick.
What do you mean, it's not up to me?

I am waiting for you like a man for his mail,
I am thinking of you like love for her lover -
You're as busy as a bee, but you would never fail
To realize that this relation's not over
And our love; thousands of flowers will cover....

Busy, busy, busy bee.
Buzzing by so busily.

Busy, busy, busy bee.
Land upon a flowering tree.

Busy, busy, busy bee.
Nectar sweet is what he seeks.

Busy, busy, busy bee.
Flying home so happily.

Busy, busy, busy bee.
Honey sweet he makes for me....

Looking through,--worried man I see
With a mouth  busy  as  a  bee
Commune with astral world it looks,
Mixture of lust and fear ,he cooks
With hopelessness written on his face, Is this me?.

I don’t want to be busy as a bee
I want to enjoy and take it easy

I won’t work hard to get rich
I fly in dream like a witch

And go to places where no one can go
And see many things that no one can show

My mind is rich in everyway
If I remain poor it’s okay

I play with the words like Pele
To bring poetry’s golden day...

As blind as a bat,
as brave as a lion,
and stupid as a goat.

As busy as a bee,
as fat as a pig,
and happy as a king.

As strong as  a lion,
as heavy as a load,
and rude as fool.

As black as coal,
as cold as ice,
and white as snow.

As hot as fire,
as green as  grass,
and sweetly as juice.

All in all,
makes one thing,
common in life....

Keep them busy, busy, busy
busy as a bee!

Let them train a dog
Rent him out to the neighbors-hard labor
Sports-any kind with lots of running/sweating

challenge them to write poetry, paint a picture or a barn.
Muriels, graffiti what ever their flavor-within reason
Encourage them to help other children that are less fortunate

Let me know, what you think!
Will it work?...

Broken souls
To parting souls
Hide in a deep blackened hole
Sold your soul to the devil years ago
Can't move with the flow
Throw in the towl
While having a conversation with a wise owl
Fowl breath
Will be the death of me
Minds racing
Busy as a bee
Will your next life be stuck as a tree?
Than you'll finally be free
And see the light
Under the floor
While walking through a frame less door...

Life’s Four Seasons 
Miracle Man
6/21/2022

Spring time of life was a time to grow,
during teenage years time moved too slow.
Summer time found me nearing twenty-five, 
and as busy as a bee swarm in a hive.

Autumn came at fifty and leaves turned gold,
I began harvesting thoughts about growing old.
Winter is now here and days seem extended,
I’m now eighty-three and another season ended.

how much like sheep we are

how much like sheep we are  today
how easily we are led astray
we seek out gossip like cool green grass
then we become not sheep but ass
as asses we do bray
more lies and slander upon our way
until the clamour falls loudly upon our ears
causing so much heartbreak.and many tears.

we should instead be like birds of love
cooing gently like the dove
or keeping busy like the bee
or like the deer living quietly...

In tulips live I,
A little tulip man; 
Opening 
A cup of stars at dawn,
Drawing
down the sun at dusk; 


In tulips live I, 
A little tulip man; 
Immortal as a drunken butterfly, 
On nectar and dew befuddled; 
In tulips live I, A little tulip man; 
Indelible and senseless 
Un-busy as a bee full Of honey. 
Maniacal and magisterial 
Elemental and eleemosynary 
Lyrical and lascivious 
A little tulip man
am I.

An Candid Answer To the Boss

By Elton Camp

The boss saw Roscoe daydreaming
So stopped at his desk, screaming

“To do work you have been hired.
Lazy loafers are likely to be fired!”

“What excuse can you possibly give
So you neglect of duty I can forgive?”

Not any lying word did Roscoe try
“I didn’t notice you coming is why.”

“If your approach I did see,
I’d have been busy as a bee.”

The boss showed a scowl, then a grin
“For such honesty, you are my friend.”...

Calm down you flitting butterflies it's going to be okay 
We both still have some things to do to make it through this day 
I know, I know tonight will bring a princess in our midst
But try to let me concentrate or something will get missed
I'm working hard to take my mind off whom we will descry
And keeping busy as a bee to make the time pass by
Oh Father Time, would just this once in haste be you to go?
Please double up your metronome, the tempo is too slow...

I am a frog I live in a pond
The sea is too big for me
I like to relax upon a rock
Not busy like a bee.

You might find me sitting all alone
Just letting time pass by
And if your very patient
You might see me catch a fly.

You've probably heard me croaking
That's just to let you know
When your walking out at night 
You wont step on my toe.

So put some water in your garden
And really look after me
I'll eat up all your nasty slugs
They are a delicacy....

Thoughts rush in; words rush out
Really know what it's all about
Stop that rushing; just stop it.
Don't throw that fit!
Take all the time you need to pray
The the Peace will reflect in what you say.
Manipulations and temptations flee
Don't be as busy as a bee
But breathe deeply, think creatively,
See the beauty somewhere intuitively,
Wait and then act purposefully.
Don't let the "negatives" bully.
Be sweet and never stop smiling
Blessings will start piling....

Spirit is the heart of all beauty
the makeup you wear needlessly.
True spirit shines in loveliness,
Our life's are enhanced by it's glow.

Majestic mountains abound in glory
as do all the living things.
The flowers that adorn the land
and the busy buzzing bumble bee.

It is in the ocean's rolling waves
rippled by the warm south wind.
All around us it flows filling
everything it touches in passing.

Life would be oh! so very bland
without that wonderful Spirit....
